Breechblock pin

Depends on if one intends to shoot the pistol a little or a lot, a lot being relative of course.

I cannot imagine firing a luger that has exhibited a problem like this "a lot" after it has been repaired.

So as usual, it depends on what one is trying to accomplish. If one wants a pistol to shoot for 1000's of rounds, buy a near new late issue Mauser; or replace the toggle train on this one for shooting.

It is entirely possible the pin broke because it was flawed when made, or too brittle.
